Density-Dependent Squeezing of Excitons in Highly Excited Semiconductors

Published Jul 31, 1995• 0 citations

Abstract

The time evolution from coherent states to squeezed states of high density excitons is studied theoretically based on the boson formalism and within the Random Phase Approximation. Both the mutual interaction between excitons and the anharmonic exciton-photon interaction due to phase-space filling of excitons are included in consideration. It is shown that the exciton squeezing depends strongly on the exciton density in semiconductors and becomes smaller with increasing the latter.

On exciton squeezing in semiconductors

Nguyen Ba An

We consider an optically excited semiconductor as a coherent system of interacting excitons and photons. Within the boson formalism and secular approximation the analytical expressions for the exciton quadrature variances are rigorously derived. The analysis of these variances over the relevant parameter space shows that initially coherent excitons can evolve into squeezed states in a finite-size semiconductor, which must possess both linear and non-linear interactions.

Exciton-induced squeezed state of light in semiconductors

Nguyen Ba An

In this paper a mechanism for the generation of a squeezed state of light is theoretically presented. Due to coupling with excitons and via exciton-exciton interaction, a light beam propagating within a finite-size semiconductor sample is shown to evolve into a squeezed state. Based on an effective bosonic Hamiltonian, which is obtained from the original fermionic one, a detailed derivation of the photon quadrature variances is presented and dependences of the photon squeezing on both the extrinsic and intrinsic parameters are analyzed.

GENERATION OF SQUEEZED EXCITONS IN SEMICONDUCTORS BY COHERENT LIGHT

Nguyen Ba An, THAI HOA TRAN

In this letter, we show that semiconductor excitons generated by coherent light may become squeezed. This is due to their interactions both with the light and among themselves. Based on a polariton theory and using a secular approximation, analytical expressions for exciton quadrature variances have been derived, which enable us to study easily the dependence of exciton squeezing degree on the pumping light intensity, frequency detuning and strength of exciton-exciton, as well as exciton-photon, interactions.

Collapses and revivals of exciton emission in a semiconductor microcavity: Detuning and phase-space filling effects

Guangri Jin, Wu‐Ming Liu

We investigate exciton emission of a quantum well embedded in a semiconductor microcavity. The analytical expressions of the light intensity for the cases of the excitonic number state and the coherent state are presented by using secular approximation. Our results show that the effective exciton-exciton interaction leads to the appearance of collapse and revival of the light intensity. The revival time is twice compared the coherent state case with that of the number state. The dissipation of the exciton-polariton lowers the revival amplitude but does not alter the revival time. The influences of the detuning and the phase-space filling are studied. We find that the effect of higher-order exciton-photon interaction can be removed by adjusting the detuning.

Light squeezing via exciton-exciton interaction in semiconductors

Nguyen Ba An

In the excitonic polariton picture light squeezing is studied as a function of the exciton-exciton interaction. The influence of the photon frequency detuning, the initial photon intensity and exciton density as well as the magnitude of both the exciton-exciton and exciton-photon interactions on the squeezing process of light are investigated in detail.

SQUEEZED EXCITONS IN SEMICONDUCTORS

Nguyen Ba An

The concept is introduced of squeezed excitons that appear during the process of their interaction with squeezed photons. Situations are considered where the excitons initially are in the Fock or coherent states. For the excitons to become squeezed it is more favourable to prepare them beforehand in a coherent state than in a Fock one. The squeezing degree of excitons depends on that of the initial photons and on detuning.
